Sabrina Chwalek serves as the intern for NTI’s Global Biological Policy and Programs Team (NTI | bio). In this role, she supports NTI | bio’s work to mitigate global catastrophic biological risks through conducting research and assisting with a broad portfolio of projects.

Sabrina is a senior at Brown University studying computer science with a focus on AI. She previously worked as a research assistant for the Horizon Institute for Public Service, where she helped map out the U.S. biosecurity policy landscape and co-organized a workshop aiming to help early and mid-career professionals transition into careers in biosecurity and pandemic preparedness.
